Draw a labelled diagram of the chloroplast and name and describe the two phases of photosynthesis.

Here are the answers to the questions: 1.1.4. Draw a labelled diagram of the organelle present in the leaves of the plants where Photosynthesis takes place. The organelle is the chloroplast*. Your diagram should include: An outer membrane* An inner membrane* Stroma* (the fluid-filled space) Thylakoids* (disc-shaped sacs) Grana* (stacks of thylakoids) Lamellae* (connections between grana) 1.1.5. The rate or speed at which photosynthesis takes place depends on the following three factors: a) Light intensity* b) Carbon dioxide concentration* c) Temperature* 1.1.6. Name and describe TWO phases of Photosynthesis: Name: Light-dependent phase* Describe: This phase occurs in the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplast. It requires light energy to split water molecules (photolysis), releasing oxygen and producing ATP and NADPH*. Name: Light-independent phase* (or Calvin cycle) Describe: This phase occurs in the stroma of the chloroplast. It does not directly require light but uses the ATP and NADPH produced during the light-dependent phase to fix carbon dioxide and convert it into glucose*. 3 done, 2 left today.
